Chapter 313 - 305: Supreme
"Are you Nezha?"
The newcomer stood three zhang and five chi tall. On Earth, he would be a giant, a rare sight even in the demon-filled camps of Chengtang. However, in the heavens above, surrounded by billowing clouds, he seemed not so tall.
Nonetheless, this did not diminish the aura of authority he exuded.
He stood in Red Flame Cloud Boots, his stature hidden amidst the drifting haze, each step causing ripples in the sea of clouds.
His face was the color of ripe dates, eyebrows slanting sharply into his hairline, eyes flaring with golden light, like twin bolts of lightning erupting from the clouds. Embedded in his forehead was a rhombic divine seal, within it appeared molten fire surging, discerningly forged from the Heaven-Burning Pattern of Eight Desolates True Fire. Behind his head, three overlapping halos rotated, the outer ring shaped as Green Lotus Karmic Fire, the middle condensed into a Beidou Star Map, while the inner ring coiled with nine Thunder Patterned Dragons, their presence born and extinguished like tidal waves of pressure.
Nezha looked at him, secretly alarmed.
Never did he expect that upon entering the Heavenly Realm, the first person he met would be so formidable, easily a supreme force of Golden Immortal Perfection in the Taiyi realm.
If he had not entered Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad’s Furnace of Eight Trigrams, nor taken Tongtian Sect Leader’s Divine Evil Pill, encountering this moment, he’d likely be at the mercy of others.
But now, he had reached the Daluo Golden Immortal Realm, and the medicine’s power within him was yet to be fully unleashed, continually enhancing his cultivation without cease.
He could kill with a flip of his hand.
Nezha thought, so he bowed and said, "Indeed, I am Nezha. Do you recognize me?"
Upon hearing Nezha’s reply, the figure seemed to let out a sigh of relief, saying, "I am Li Qiong, Palace Guardian God General under the Jade Emperor, the Supreme Natural Mystical Absolute True Jade Emperor of the Heavenly Golden Palace. I have come by imperial decree to escort you to an audience."
